Room service is offered 24 hours a day, but the staff is a mixed bag, often ignoring special requests.
Star Service
"Nautical and historical decor including large maps, an antique model ship and a large globe adds a sense of importance to the location.

"The 236-room Commodore is a pleasant enough, but slightly dated upper-middle-range hotel located in the V&A Waterfront area of Cape Town, a few minutes' walk from the quayside."

"The property feels more European than Cape Georgian, with dark wood and Belle Époque-era statues in the lobby."

"There’s a touch of Old World glamour to the Cape Royale—the imposing facade, the dramatic lobby, the bellmen in top hats."
